Threads on a 2010 caliper bracket? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I am painting my calipers today and I am having a lot of trouble getting the front calipers off for painting. I was wondering, are the threads on a 2010 caliper bracket reversed or regular? any tips on getting these things unscrewed?

Should be normal lefty loosely but caliper bracket bolts are very tight at work we remove and install with a 1/2 air impact so tight is normal and good

Breaker bar and use loctite on them when they go back on. Can't remember the torque spec.
